Re: Migrating from PGP TO GPG
My firm uses both GnuPG and McAfee e-Business Server (the original PGP, IMO). Project will take a little research, but all should be fine for you. And if you have existing keys with PGP, there is no reason you can't continue to use them so you don't impact your trading partners by changing keys. Good luck, and you shoulg get lots of help from this forum even as an observer. Tracy Bossong --- amit bhalerao <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi , > > We are migrating from PGP to GPG mechanism > .

Re: Make GnuPG create files with .pgp extension
Perhaps the best approach to this is a simple script. gpg --encrypt --recipient %2 --output %1.pgp %1 You could expand on it.

Re: - -textmode???
--textmode tells gpg/pgp that the input file is a text file. This allows proper decryption and record seperator translation on the receiving system depending if it is *nix, Windows, or... like we use, an OS/390 mainframe (EBCDIC). --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Can someone tell me the difference between to two > commands below? > gpg -r ### --armor --sign --encrypt > OUTFILE > gpg -r ### --armor --sign --encrypt --textmode < > INFILE > OUTFILE > > We are using the first command for our GPG > encryption today, but may have a > need to use the --textmode for a new recipient.

Re: automating gnupg decryption
for /F "tokens=1-4 delims=/ " %%a in ('Date/t') Do Set
DTE=%%d%%b%%c
set DTE=%DTE:~-6%
That will help you with your date issues, but for
Windows scripting, you may want to search
alt.msdos.batch.nt
I could help you by writing the script, but think you
might appeciate it more if you did it yourself and
researched it on usenet.
Best of luck.

Maybe a command giving complete information on a file would be useful too. I mean a signed file and an encrypted file have both .gpg extension and are hard to distinguish, aren't they ?
